Does no one here fault the morality of the buyer?!? 

Seem like if you can cover the balance there would be no need for voluntary repossession.

Probably a lot of these are getting rolled up into collateraized debt obligations, so they don't stay on the lenders' books for long. They're disguised and sold to high-rolling investors. Same as they did with subprime mortgages, which worked out so well. 

FFS, you would think the lenders would be very closely scrutinizing any dealer who has customers with a higher than usual default rate and just stop working with them.

Bring it, if you jam your chair into my legs i will make your flight as miserable as you are making mine. 

This is a very healthy approach: ask. It’s a nice touch. 

Yeah, no heroes here. That said, I am definitely in the no-recline camp. Yes, my right to recline is implicit by the presence of a reclining mechanism in my seat. But this is one case where being technically correct is the worst kind of correct. There is a flesh-and-blood human behind me whose experience becomes measur…

People who recline are monsters. Full stop. 

And I see you- A big business guy humping for a Taco Bell manager and Fox News- and I see you harping on the same boring bullshit in every comment like a broken record so please don’t hesitate to STFU.

Your recommendation that we go to Fox News means that you’re part of the problem.  That White Nationalist Propaganda Network is for sure gonna back business every time (see- tax cuts) with no support of workers.  Bill is not a reader, are they?

So, like I said. Poorly run business is run poorly.

You need to read my comment again, because I specifically addressed that. If you can’t cover no shows, then you are running chronically undermanned. Poor management, and even poor management acting out with their little tantrum sign.

Got it in one!

So they are saying that they have cut staffing levels to the point they cannot cover any absences? I call that poor management. Same as when management claims that time off ill puts the pressure on other employees, it just means they have managed the employee staffing level so poorly they cannot cover illness. In both…

I’m over 6' tall, and ~270 lbs. I carpool to work with guys in the back of a Focus and an old CTS. Its tighter, but I still fit.

Family of 6' tall here. You’d be just fine in a Honda Fit Sport. At 6'3" I have room to spare in the back seat with someone who is 6' in front of me. 

My kid brother is 6ft6 320 lbs and fits in a Toyota Echo. With his friends. My father is 6ft1 290 and dailys a Volvo 240 comfortably. There are these things called mid size and full size cars. 

Meh. I'm 6'6" and fit great in a Volt.
